Chapter 7 Fives

The door was gently pushed open, and about four or five minutes later, the lights in the dormitory were turned on.Facing the clear picture of the micro-display system, he couldn't help but be surprised that it wasn't Xia Zhongmin who walked into the dormitory! He couldn't believe his eyes, but the picture clearly told him that it wasn't Xia Zhongmin who walked into the dormitory! No wonder the man didn't turn on the lights for such a long time when he entered the dormitory. In nearly half a month, he had never seen this person come to Xia Zhongmin's dormitory, not even once.

It was a man who walked into the dormitory, about forty years old.He quietly let his whole body stick tightly behind the door, listening to the movement outside the door, while looking at the situation in the room.It was obvious that he had locked the door. Judging by his sneaky appearance, he doesn't look like Xia Zhongmin's driver's secretary, or any relative or friend.Moreover, this guy seemed to be quite familiar with the layout of the dormitory. He seemed to walk into the inner room of the dormitory without even looking at it, and glanced at the single bed.He quietly listened to the door of the bathroom, opened it, poked his head in to see if there was no one there, and then closed it casually.Then he stood silently in the center of the room, as if thinking about something, and remained motionless for a long time.

He couldn't help but stare in a daze. This guy is really too courageous, he dared to break into the home of a municipal party committee leader before 12 o'clock in the evening!And so blatantly, he dared to turn on all the lights in the outer room and the inner room.It seems that this guy is really familiar with Xia Zhongmin's situation, at least he knows where Xia Zhongmin is at this moment, and he won't be returning to the dormitory in a short time.Otherwise, how dare he sneak into Xia Zhongmin's dormitory at this time?Also, how did he get the key on the dormitory door?If he wasn't a gangster, he would definitely be a person who can get close to Xia Zhongmin, at least his accomplices are people who can get close to Xia Zhongmin!

What was this guy doing sneaking into the house of a city party committee leader? This guy doesn't look like a thief, he doesn't look like he wants to steal anything at all.This guy also seemed to know that there would be nothing valuable in Xia Zhongmin's single dormitory. So, what is this guy up to? He stared at this man's actions with unrelenting eyes, what the hell!All speculations were immediately confirmed. This guy quickly took out a few bug-like things from his small satchel, and installed them one by one under the bed, under the desk, under the lamp holder, and in the microphone of the telephone.

Just like in his home, this guy didn't have the slightest panic and tension at all! Several times he was startled by this guy's actions, his hands and face were so close to his monitor, he even clearly heard the guy panting, and once almost touched it He mounted a rather stealthy probe. When this guy installed all the devices, walked around the room for a long time, and then turned off the lights one by one, and finally walked out of the dormitory quietly, he realized that his clothes were already soaked in sweat . About five or six minutes later, he took out his mobile phone as if he had been awakened suddenly, and frantically typed a series of numbers.

When Yang Xiaogui, deputy general manager of Huangyuan Group Company in Dianjiang City, received the call, he couldn't help being stunned for a long time. "Did you see him packing things in the house?" "That's right, it's probably something like a bug, not a device like ours." "Shut up! I'll warn you again, don't talk about us on the phone!" "You don't need to warn me, I know this better than you! Today's situation is special, otherwise I wouldn't take such a big risk to call you in this ghost place. What I want to figure out now is, what is the origin of this guy .”

"Bullshit!" Yang Xiaogui became a little annoyed, "If I knew, why the hell would I ask you!" "I didn't ask you to answer, I just hope you find out as soon as possible! This guy is very dangerous! If he messes up, he will drag out our business by the root!" "Damn hell these days...Damn, have you seen what he looks like?" Yang Xiaogui swallowed, and asked in a slow breath. "About forty years old, thin, with deep eyes, short hair, yellow face, and quite agile. But doing this kind of thing is not like an amateur, but very courageous. It seems that there are reliable insiders, maybe there are others. His accomplices were guarding him outside, otherwise he would not have done it so blatantly, with a nonchalant attitude. To be honest, he is much more confident than us, as if he is not afraid of anything."

"Okay, I got it." Yang Xiaogui wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he felt that there was nothing to say, "You wait for my call, and don't contact me directly unless there are special circumstances. I will find a way to get the matter over as soon as possible." Find out." "It must be fast. This matter cannot be taken lightly. Otherwise, we will not be able to withdraw even if we want to. This is really dangerous." "Listen to me. If you want to be safe, make trouble for me as soon as possible! The most important thing for you now is to hurry up. Everything else is nonsense, so just keep an eye on me." There, as long as something can be caused, we can say anything, if nothing can be caused, then we are all dead, do you fucking understand! Let me tell you, people are now doing it, right? Look it up! You gotta hurry up! If you can get something out, I won't treat you badly. If you can't get something out, then we're all screwed! From today on, it's best to stay there during the day too... "

Guo Ziwei, deputy director of the Management Committee of Dianjiang Economic and Technological Development Zone and director of the storage port area, was playing bowling with a few foreigners when he received a call from Yang Xiaogui.Because he was in the middle of the game and had just scored a high score, he was very interested, so he didn't hear the phone ring twice. Twenty seconds after Guo Ziwei turned on the phone, the excitement on his face suddenly froze. He turned around and walked towards the quiet place, asking as he walked: "Did he really see clearly?" "He said he could see clearly, it's absolutely true." Yang Xiaogui paused for a moment, then slammed into the truth, "It's less than thirty minutes, if you don't delay it for so long, it might take twenty minutes. No. They are very anxious, first, ask us if we know about this matter; second, if we don’t know, let us immediately find a way to find out where the kid is from.”

"It's just such a small Dianjiang City, no matter how big it is, it's still just that Zhima official. You tell that person, he's doing a good job. Be careful, but don't worry, things like this will be settled soon .The most important thing is to do his work, and don't miss the job." "But you have to seriously investigate it. According to me, this matter is indeed not a trivial matter. If there is any mistake, none of us will be able to bear it. I said it at the time, and you know it too. Xia Zhongmin is not an ordinary person, and if something goes wrong, it will be a huge hole. This kind of thing is not a small matter, and if something goes wrong, it is not so easy to spend millions or tens of millions. Things settled down..."

"Where is the investigation team?" "You'd better not ask about this matter. One person does things and one person is responsible. What happens now has nothing to do with you. If they really want to punish me to death, then they won't die well! To tell you the truth, up and down I've checked everything. I won't let you get involved right now, and I still don't want to hurt you. I have to keep a back hand. If I can't stand it in the future, as long as you are still in your seat, I don't think you will see death Don’t save it. Also, you have to tell the old secretary about this, and he, Liu Shibei, don’t be too careless. I’m down, just one or two, you know, the divorce procedure between my wife and I It’s been almost two years since my child is applying for a green card in the United States, so I don’t have any worries. He’s different, and of course you, if it falls, it’s a big piece..." Liu Shibei, director of the management committee of Dianjiang Economic and Technological Development Zone and general manager of the head office, stared into the phone for a long time without saying a word. I don't know how long it took before Liu Shibei said softly: "Understood." "Director Liu," although Guo Ziwei is the deputy director of the management committee, his tone seemed to be a few grades worse. He said carefully while carefully choosing his words, "I think we are not worried about other things. The reason is that we are afraid that our affairs will be involved. So I think it is necessary to investigate as soon as possible to see who instigated that guy, whether the big ghost or the little ghost will be with us all the way, don't make it too big The water rushed to the Dragon King Temple, if something goes wrong, it will fall together instead..." "Okay, I got it." Liu Shibei's voice was very soft, but it clearly revealed a kind of majesty to make the other party shut up. Guo Ziwei immediately fell silent, but he didn't dare to put up the phone.After a long time, he tentatively asked, "Director Liu, is that the case? Look... is there anything else you want to order?" "There is still no progress in the past two days?" "Not yet, I really didn't expect that Xia Zhongmin is so ghostly. He almost doesn't stay in the dormitory every day. It is often late at night, and he doesn't come back from outside until two or three o'clock in the morning. When he comes back, he doesn't do anything, just lie there. He just slept, wiped his face and left again. No one came to him, he didn't answer the phone very much, and he didn't even take a shower. Director Liu, we all think that Xia Zhongmin must have something for him to be happy outside. The place where the cunning rabbit and the three caves, did he deceive us all?" "Okay, needless to say." Liu Shibei blocked his words again, "Use some snacks, look down again, let's talk about what we have... Where is the inspection team?" "I've already told Secretary Wang Siti what you mean. He's waiting for the inspection team at the guest house right now." "You didn't tell him about the joint investigation team?" "Speaking of which, he was startled at first, but later he heard that it was from this side, so he seemed to be less nervous." "It's worthless!" Liu Shibei seemed to be talking to himself, "Zi Wei, listen, it seems that the investigation team's visit this time will not be a trivial matter. I'm most worried about you Yang Xiaogui, you must watch him carefully, protect him, and don't let him cause any trouble, you have to be careful." "I understand. I have already made arrangements, and I have quietly sent people abroad to investigate. There will be news about the situation he said soon." "We are protecting him now, not only for ourselves, but also for the situation in Dianjiang, as well as the cadres in Dianjiang. So we must keep Yang Xiaogui out of trouble, and we must not let our affairs fall into his hands." Here, as long as we can keep him from going wrong, we have room for it. Understand? This is the most important thing. You have to be careful, and if necessary, arrest Yang Xiaogui first, of course, in our hands .Only in this way can we keep him. Do you understand?" "Understood, Director Liu. I know what I should do..." Guo Ziwei suddenly fell silent, the phone was busy, and Liu Shibei had already hung up. Liu Shibei suffers from severe insomnia, and must take two or more sleeping pills every night, in addition to traditional Chinese medicine, in order to sleep more peacefully for three or four hours.Over the years, with the increase of age, the conditions and requirements for sleeping have become more and more stringent.Every night, you must fall asleep before 11 o'clock, and there should be no disturbance at home when you fall asleep.If it weren't for something big, the family would never wake him up after 11 o'clock in the evening, let alone when he fell asleep.However, Liu Shibei does not reject all calls. He has a 24-hour mobile phone that his wife watches over during the day and his nanny at night.Only his closest and most important relations and subordinates, including his driver's secretary, will know the number of this mobile phone.But they all understand that they will not call this number unless it is absolutely necessary. He knew it would be difficult to sleep again tonight.A strong premonition seemed to tell him that the days when he wanted to sleep peacefully would be fewer and fewer. Liu Shibei is 64 years old this year. He worked as Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee of Dianjiang City for seven years, and he left the position when he was almost 62 years old.He is currently the vice chairman of the Haozhou CPPCC, member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial CPPCC, and director of the Dianjiang Economic Development Zone.Due to his special status as a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Political Consultative Conference, he can work smoothly until he retires at the age of 65 or even longer. Dianjiang Economic Development Zone is a provincial development zone, so this development zone is inextricably linked with Dianjiang City, but also relatively independent.It controls the economic lifeline of Dianjiang remotely, and is outside the scope of Dengjiang's power.To be in such a position and environment is so wonderful and feels so good.Relatively speaking, being the director of the development zone is sometimes even more influential and authoritative than when Liu Shibei was the secretary of the municipal party committee in Dianjiang. The encounters and feelings of these years have made Liu Shibei more than once deeply grateful for being able to occupy this position.If he didn't have this position, then his situation and status in Dianjiang might have been precarious and it would be difficult to protect himself.Especially in the past few years when he competed with Xia Zhongmin and the others, if he hadn't been in this position, he would never have been invincible in such a way. Liu Shibei didn't have any special background. According to his words, he was the son of an out-and-out farmer, who worked hard and worked hard. At the age of 33, he was transferred from a neighboring county to Dianjiang. From a deputy secretary of a commune to later secretary of the municipal party committee, he worked in Dengjiang City for 30 years.Section chiefs, directors, bureau chiefs, directors, public security, procuratorate, law, industry, youth, women, party committees, government, he has worked in and been in charge of almost all departments, and there is no place he is not familiar with or unclear about.So he said that whether he is the mayor or the secretary of the municipal party committee, he is the most competent mayor and secretary of the municipal party committee in China.When reporting work below, no one would dare to tell him nonsense without telling the truth.As long as he sits back and forth with a sullen face, those officials, big and small, can only be honest and obedient.Because as soon as you open your mouth, he immediately understands what you are thinking, what you are planning, and immediately understands which are the truth and which are lies. And the most important point is that after working here for 30 years, until he left the post of secretary of the Municipal Party Committee at the age of 62, almost none of the officials, big or small, were promoted without his decision.He looked at the leading cadres he had single-handedly promoted as if he looked at his own juniors.Even today, when those cadres, big and small, come to him, they unconsciously feel like a son meeting his father. In fact, Liu Shibei has many sons and daughters, and has seven children: four sons and three girls.As long as these children of his are mentioned, his spirits will immediately rise and his face will be radiant.Although it was a humble tone, anyone could feel his pride and pride when he heard it.Especially in recent years, he often took the initiative to mention his children in front of people.He said, in our whole life, we will only have these few children, all of whom are quite up-to-date, and they all give him the face of his father who is a sesame official. Don't think that he is being modest, as long as you know the position and identity of his children in Dianjiang and Haozhou, you will immediately look solemn, and you cannot but be deeply moved by the benefits and disadvantages. Liu Shibei's four sons, one is the deputy chief prosecutor of the Haozhou City Procuratorate, one is the director of the Haozhou City Planning Commission, one is the president of the Dianjiang City Court, and the other is the mayor of Chengguan Town, Dengjiang City; Daughters-in-law, except for the eldest daughter-in-law who retired from illness a few years ago, one is the director of the Dijiang City Finance Bureau, the other is the vice president of the Haozhou Construction Bank, and the other is the deputy director of the Dijiang Family Planning Commission; three daughters, one is the deputy secretary of the Dianjiang Municipal Committee One is the secretary of the Haozhou Municipal Work Committee, the other is the director of the office of the Dianjiang Industrial and Commercial Bureau; the three sons-in-law, one is currently the secretary of the Jiangbei District Committee of Dianjiang City, one is the deputy director of the Haozhou Taxation Bureau, and the other is the deputy director of the Haozhou Disciplinary Inspection Commission. secretary. In addition to these dozen or so immediate family members, Liu Shibei also has six nephews, four nieces, five nephews, and eight nieces.The eldest nephew is now the chairman and general manager of Yonghua Technology Group, the most competitive listed company in Dijiang City, the second nephew is the general manager of Dijiang Real Estate Development Company, and the third nephew is the deputy director of Dijiang Radio, Film and Television Bureau He is also the director of Dianjiang Cable TV Station. His fourth nephew is now the director of the Office of the Planning Institute of Dianjiang Urban Construction Bureau. The eldest niece is now the deputy director of the Transportation Bureau of Dianjiang City, the second niece is the secretary of the Youth League Committee of Dianjiang City, the third niece is the director of the business department of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of Dianjiang City, and the fourth niece is now the deputy head of Jiangyin District of Dianjiang City; The niece is now the editorial board member of the "Dengjiang Daily" in Dianjiang City and the deputy editor-in-chief of the "Dengjiang Evening News". The second niece is now the deputy director of the Organization Department of the Dianjiang Municipal Party Committee. The niece is now the deputy chief engineer of the Dianjiang Water Supply Company... In the high-tech development zone where he is located, the director of the financial department, the chief accountant, and the director of the business area are his second niece, fourth niece, and eldest nephew. People have said that, in fact, this can only be regarded as a bright line.Surrounding this line, there are Liu Shibei's cousins, cousins, cousins, sisters-in-law, sisters-in-law, aunts, aunts, and countless sisters-in-laws, uncles, uncles, and aunts... and a bunch of in-laws, and Brother, sister, younger brother, younger sister, cousin, cousin, cousin, cousin, sister-in-law, sister-in-law, aunt, aunt... This line will be connected to countless lines. When you want to pull this line When you get up, you may find that even the land under your feet does not belong to you. Liu Shibei gives people the impression of simplicity, frugality, prudence and sternness.He is not greedy for money or lustful, and has no hobbies or bad habits.He quit smoking when he became mayor at the age of 47, and quit drinking when he was appointed secretary of the municipal party committee at the age of 54. Until today, it can basically be said that he does not smoke, drink, dance, play cards, play mahjong, or even do any physical activities.His appearance also always gives people a feeling of being weather-beaten, rough and stressed.Thin body, dark complexion, wrinkled face, narrow waist always deeply bent.His clothes are also very casual, a white shirt in summer and a military overcoat in winter, for decades.Cloth shoes are mostly used throughout the year, and I have never seen him wear any famous brand.His house is not big, it's a simple two-story building, and a plain family courtyard.Compared with those exquisite and gorgeous mansions nearby, its simplicity and simplicity cannot but awe the owner. People have a consistent evaluation and opinion of Liu Shibei in private, and Liu Shibei himself admits that his biggest hobby and ability in his life is to love and think about people.His own evaluation of himself is basically the same, that is, forgiving and forgiving, knowing others and doing good. Liu Shibei never concealed his views. When he was secretary of the Dianjiang Municipal Party Committee, he publicly stated many times even at the city's cadre meeting that Dianjiang's biggest advantage is not in economy or technology, but in talents. During Liu Shibei's tenure as the main leader of Dianjiang City, hundreds of cadres were introduced to Haozhou, other cities and counties, and even the entire province.Among the main leading members of the Haozhou Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, cadres from Dianjiang accounted for almost one-third.Among the main leading members of the province, four are from Dianjiang: the provincial government's deputy governor Ma, the deputy director of the Provincial Party Committee's Organization Department, the deputy director of the Finance Department, and the deputy director of the Communications Department.There are also a large number of Dianjiang people in the financial, economic and trade, industrial and commercial taxation, and public security and judicial systems.And among these people, almost a quarter were promoted during Liu Shibei's tenure.As for the other leaders, although they were not employed directly from Dianjiang during Liu Shibei's tenure, these people Liu Shibei maintained a close and good relationship with them as fellow villagers.Whether it is a festival, a wedding or a wedding, or inviting them to give a report or conduct a field trip, Liu Shibei, as a landlord, will provide them with the most thoughtful service and the most satisfactory arrangement, so that they can save time and money At the same time, it will also give them the greatest psychological satisfaction, so that they will always have a strong feeling of returning home and honoring their ancestors.Therefore, these people will take Dianjiang people as their glory, and they all have a deep sense of mission and responsibility to contribute to the development of Dianjiang. Liu Shibei still has a very popular point in Dianjiang, that is, he wins more cadre positions for Dianjiang every year, including the number and quota of division-level cadres. There are hundreds of department-level and department-level places and positions that have been won! Liu Shibei also has one of the most admirable and eye-catching behaviors, that is, he has always dismissed and even hated the kind of cash behavior of buying and selling officials and eager for quick success.Once such things are discovered, he will punish them severely and never show mercy.This alone makes almost all the cadres who have been employed by him and who are expected to be employed by him sigh with emotion and feel grateful.What Liu Shibei wanted was actually this kind of effect: amidst the heartfelt praise and the increasingly brutal competitive atmosphere, it would not only greatly enhance his authority and deterrent power as the secretary of the municipal party committee, but also greatly expand his own power. sphere of influence and network of relationships.And the most important point is that when he continuously launched and promoted batches of cadres "selflessly, without asking for anything in return, regardless of grievances, and magnanimousness", the appointment and arrangement of his immediate family members, including relatives and friends, also affected him. Just let it be big and let it go, with the ebb and flow of the tide, the clouds rise and the clouds fly, these things mixed in the big rivers, the wind and the waves, in the eyes of people, they will naturally become smaller, fade, disappear, and can't be seen. In fact, it was only after many years that people realized that Liu Shibei's intangible demands and rewards would be greater and greater when it comes to appointing cadres.When he recommends you with all his strength, promotes you, and you accept it without hesitation, and then you arrange and employ his people, it is often difficult for people caught in this vicious circle to speak or use any reason and excuses to turn him down.Everything seemed natural, smooth, peaceful, reasonable, and logical.However, it is precisely in this inadvertent time and time again that when you look around again, Liu Shibei's power is already overwhelming. Only at this time will people truly realize what Liu Shibei's long history and wealth mean. Liu Shibei often takes the trouble to instruct his sons and girls: In our society, leading cadres are the easiest to do, the most likely to make mistakes, the hardest to be promoted, and the most difficult to promote. It is also the leading cadres who are the most difficult to step down.So no matter which seat you occupy, you must cherish this seat.Because no matter how big or small these seats are, there are countless eyes staring at and looking forward to each seat at all times.In fact, every seat is both at stake and hard-won. Liu Shibei cherishes his seat very much, but cherishing is not fear.He is not afraid of any threats, nor is he afraid of any challenges, because he understands that in this land of China, no matter how strong your personal energy is or how capable you are, it is useless.In the end, we still have to rely on strength to speak, we have to rely on power to speak, and we have to rely on the strength of the collective and the whole to speak. The only thing Liu Shibei is worried about now is actually this Xia Zhongmin.Because he understands that there is only one person who can turn Dang Jiang upside down and dare to break the pattern he has managed for decades, and that is Xia Zhongmin.The only way to stop Xia Zhongmin is to never let Xia Zhongmin be the mayor of Dianjiang, let alone let Xia Zhongmin be the secretary of Dianjiang. Liu Shibei didn't mean to be against Xia Zhongmin, he really had no choice but to do anything about it.Because he understood that Xia Zhongmin would not follow the path paved by the previous secretary in a regular manner.Once Xia Zhongmin became the mayor's secretary, he would immediately turn the entire Dian River upside down.During Xia Zhongmin's half a year as the executive deputy mayor, only one job competition from the city's government agencies almost cut off one-third of the seat he had previously placed!One third, this is by no means a small number!With a number like this, when he was in office, it would take him at least three to five years, or even longer, to be settled according to his wishes.And this Xia Zhongmin, with so many cadre positions, he gave you all of them in less than a month. For Liu Shibei, such a person is really terrifying! The sudden arrival of the joint investigation team is a clear proof.Xia Zhongmin, who was the first to know about the situation, did not inform the Municipal Party Committee Secretary Chen Zhengxiang, let alone the Executive Deputy Secretary Wang Siji, but directly informed the Municipal Party Committee Deputy Secretary in charge of politics and law, Wang Jingdong, and then asked Xia Zhongmin's most assured deputy secretary of the Municipal Party Committee for Disciplinary Inspection, Qin Kang, to assist him. Handling a case is enough to make people frightened and daunted.Although he knew that Xia Zhongmin could not play any role at this time, once he took the lead, the situation would be completely different. He must stop him, even if it is by any means, he cannot let a person like Xia Zhongmin enter the core of power in a place like Dianjiang!
